The latest bout of load shedding, which is scheduled until 5am on Monday, will be utilised to 'replenish the emergency reserves'.
Stage 2 load shedding will be implemented from 11am on Wednesday, due to a shortage of generation capacity, Eskom announced on Wednesday morning.

This, the utility said, was due to the breakdowns of two more generating units that occurred during the night.
Efforts to use emergency reserves have been in vain, as these have now been depleted and need to be replenished, Eskom explained.
The City of Ekurhuleni has noted the Eskom notification of Stage 2 load shedding from 11h00 on Wednesday until 05h00 on Monday.
Customers are urged to follow the load shedding schedule for Ekurhuleni, downloadable HERE.
